TS/TECHNICAL SUPPORT

Since application of any coating system involves a high degree of knowledge and experience in areas of substrate, modern application equipment, and product compatibility, it cannot be left in the hands of applicators who do not have the requisite training and background. Therefore, to ensure proper application of a given coating system, it is essential that the architect in all cases place the specifications under a SPECIAL COATINGS section. By doing so, he highlights the fact that he is demanding a specific product applied by an experienced technician.

VITRICON^® Wall Surfacing (G,J). A glazed cementitious finish for both interior and exterior use, containing 90% Portland cement and inorganic aggregates. Provides a hard, seamless, mottled ceramic-like finish that shapes itself to complex curves, and is ideal for filling rough surfaces such as cinder-block. Thicknesses will vary from 1/32 to 3/16 of an inch, depending upon the porosity of substrate. Available in an unlimited color range of solids, patterns and web effects in high gloss or matte finish.

VITRICON is your best selection for new concrete or masonry surfaces because the cool, damp, high humidity conditions that normally exist in new construction actually aid in its curing.

VITRICON qualifies as an incombustible coating, under both ASTM E-84 (tunnel test) and Federal Standard 00136a (radiant panel test).

Vitricon was tested in accordance with ASTM E-84-61 and demonstrated surface burning characteristics well within the limits generally imposed by building codes for interior finishes in hazardous areas.

VIPoxy^® 260 (A,C,J) A two component, thermosetting epoxy resin coating, for exterior or interior, that provides an extremely tough durable finish, highly resistant to all acids, alkalis, solvents, greases and oils.

Recommended for areas of industrial plants, institutional and public buildings where extreme resistance to chemical and solvent attack is desired. Available in an almost unlimited selection of color and patterns, in gloss and satin finishes, plus a clear coating for porous surfaces such as common red brick.

VIPOXY 260 was tested in compliance with the requirements of the ASTM E84 standard and the test specimen exhibited no flame spread fuel or smoke hazard.

VIPOXY 260 complies with specifications TT-C-550-c and federal specifications TT-C-001224.

VITRICLAD* (G) An inorganic, non-cementitious surfacing system with fire resistance qualities superior to those required by the most stringent authorities. Unlimited color and decorative effects. permanent, washable and maintenance free. Nationally recognized independent laboratory tests show VITRICLAD to be incombustible, using the ASTM E-84 tunnel testing method.

ENERGEX an exterior wall insulation and decorative finish system comprised of Rigid Board Insulation, Reinforcing Mesh, ENERGEX Matrix Coat and a choice of five ENERGEX Finishes.

VITRITONE* (A) A breathable permanent coating with excellent color retention in white, pastel shades and strong colors, for exterior use. Available in four distinct finishes: smooth (A) coarse (F), raised spatter texture stucco type (I), slightly textured, each in a matte or satin gloss plus a high gloss for interior use.

ROMANTEX*(H) An exposed aggregate system of granite, natural stone or marble, that gives the 3 dimensional beauty of precast panels at a fraction of the weight and cost. ROMANTEX is job site applied over any sound structural surface, exterior or interior, even on complex curves, without additional reinforcement.

Stones of the desired size are imbedded in the trowel applied matrix, then given a protective clear coating that enriches their natural color, and leaves a polished effect that sheds dirt.

VIPoxy^® SPC An epoxy resin pool coating providing 5-10 year durability under constant water immersion, with extreme resistance to acids, alkalis, staining and fungus.

SPRAYTILE 505: An indoor and outdoor smooth continuous tile-like finish that provides attractiveness, long life and easy maintenance.

Would-be wall artists find SPRAYTILE 505 coating virtually graffiti proof.

DYNAHIDE: A hi-build 100% epoxy wall and floor system to resist chemicals, abrasions and wear. This odorless, tough and versatile finish has been developed as the result of extensive laboratory and field work of well over a decade.

POLYTOP: A seamless polyester fiberglass wall and floor laminated system. Job proven "indestructible" surfacing for hospitals, food and drug plants, schools and hard ball courts.
